Series: Lab for Kids

Kids will love learning to work with clay! These 52 projects use air drying, easy to clean up clay, making them perfect for home or the classroom!

Clay Lab for Kids, a new addition to the Lab series, focuses on kid-friendly clays - air-dry, home-made, and polymer- that are safe and easy to use at home or in the classroom; no kiln required.

Art teacher Cassie Stephens makes clay a focus of her classes with amazing results. In Clay Lab for Kids, she continues her creative explorations with 52 hands-on projects ranging from 2-D monster magnets and coats of arms, to 3-D bobble-head dolls, Day of the Dead skulls, animal friends, marionettes, and treasure boxes.

In creating with clay, kids are introduced to a wide range of cognitive and manual skills: they'll work three-dimensionally; make figurative models; use their imaginations in making jewellery and toys; design with colour; and decorate with paints.

"“Clay is a mainstay of art media for kids, and here an art teacher provides projects and techniques for a variety of clays. Air-dry clays, polymer clay, and homemade clays are all featured here, along with paints and sealers…Recipes for make-it-yourself clays include salt dough, clay dough, Silly Putty, and candy clay and are designed to be simple enough for kid participation. Throughout, Stephens encourages kid sculptors to be creative and to keep in mind the science behind the art.” – Anne Heidemann, Booklist Online ""Ideal for families looking for artistic activities, as well as teachers and caregivers interested in introducing clay to children ages five and up.” – Heather Halliday for Library Journal"
